Kipper

I remember watching this show when i was about 2 I definitely rate this 10/10.Kipper is a very cute dog and the animation is amazing.

Having watched everything made for children in the last few years because of my young daughter, I have to say that this is the best children's series ever made.

Kipper the Dog and his best friend Tiger have all sorts of adventures. Contains all the characters we come across in our lives. Kipper the completely affable dog has lots of friends, Tiger boastful but when it comes down to it is a complete 'scaredy cat', don't we all know one of these?! Totally under-rated and under-marketed, these Mick Inkpen stories are classics and will entertain for generations if only they would be released on DVD.

Deserves prime time children's TV slot for eternity! Well done Mick Inkpen and the team...

I grew up watching this and looking back it brings so many memories of a simpler time. It reminds me of Winnie the Pooh in how the characters go on a small adventure and usually learn something at the end. Kipper and his friends are likable to watch. The animation's minimalistic but still grabs your attention in its simplicity. The stories are simple and easy to follow. There's a balance between comedy and drama usually with a life lesson at the end. If you have little kids they'll definitely enjoy this and you might too. Take it for what it's worth and see for yourself.

I adored this show as a kid, I just found it so charming and well-done. The animation is great, simple yes but also very effective. I loved the music as well, the theme song was catchy and memorable. The stories were simple and educational, the writing is funny and intelligent and the characters are really endearing. I like how Kipper is responsible and resourceful yet cool as well, and I love Tiger's boastful attitude. My favourite though is Arnold, he is just so sweet and adorable. And I liked the voice acting, Martin Clunes is brilliant here as Kipper, seeing as he is a great actor who has given a number of strong performances,lead or supporting (ie. the ITV adaptation of Goodbye Mr Chips), why shouldn't he do a voice here? Overall, this was a great show, perfect for kids and adults. 10/10 Bethany Cox

This is one of the greatest shows ever that has sadly fallen into obscurity. It's so charming, cute, and calming.

The show centers around the titular Kipper the Dog and the adventures in his life. They range from being small things like setting up his inflatable pool to large-scale adventures like flying to the moon on a magic carpet (it makes sense in context). Along with Kipper, his friends include another dog named Tiger, a rather dumb pig named Pig, Pig's young cousin Arnold, a large but gentle dog named Jake, and quite a few other characters. The voice actors do a wonderful job giving each of them distinct personalities.

The art style captures the books to a tee. And the animation is nice and...I wouldn't say 'slow' as that implies negativity, but the way the characters move is often so calm, a great break from the rather hectic world we occupy. The music is also really great. It's always got this soothing tone to it.

I don't get why it's not as appreciated as it should be. It's a great show for not just kids, but parents too. It's wonderful for when you've had a busy day and need something to easy your stress and brighten your spirits. It's like getting a bedtime story told to you in animation.

I can't go beyond ten stars, so I must stick with ten.
